This is my High Tea Story
Your 40s and 50s can be a weird time… While it’s absolutely an amazing time in life, where we have come into ourselves and can even maybe decide how few f*cks we have left to give, and we start to enjoy the fruits of years of hard work and labors of love. It’s also a time of great change. Our bodies are different. So many things are changing – particularly our skin! It’s showing some signs of all the sun, fun and lifestyle choices we made, am I right?! We are NOT in a place to go backwards in our confidence and self-esteem! We are running out of f*cks to give, remember? So, when I wanted to help my skin but I couldn’t stand what I was reading on the backs of labels, when I just couldn’t navigate the sea of brands / products / ingredients – I made my own skincare. While the EU prohibits over 3,000 ingredients in personal care products, the US prohibits eleven. ELEVEN. We are truly on our own. So I did the work, and I fell into something beautiful! My face cream took me 54 tries to get just right. It had to be perfect.
What I accomplished was lovely. It worked! It smelled great and my skin was rebounding and glowing again. I started to share it with friends, family – whoever would listen! It seemed I had something that needed to be shared.
Now I was helping others! Using natural, honest ingredients – with green tea as the hero ingredient gracing all formulas as an antioxidant superstar – people were trusting me with their skin – their face, no less!
Armed with a background in sports medicine, nutrition and holistic wellness, a Diploma in Organic Skincare Formulation, & a love of cooking & mixology – we meet at this moment where art, science and a holistic approach frame every formula.
High Tea will only deliver all-natural, honest. fresh formulas and will be fully transparent. Always safe. Always effective. Even my ingredients’ ingredients will be listed in totality (nobody really does that, and they don’t have to!).
Please – make the decision to treat your skin to the care it deserves.
You’ve earned it…and you’re not done being hot!
